If you're building a world-beating track star capable of speeds of over 200 mph, don't opt for the sunroof.

ROFL.. he said " you guys need to cut the weeds out back there...."

priceless...

im actualy impress how well he handled the spin....most people under stress when they loose control and go off the road, keep trying to turn, causing the car to roll on its roof. Yes i know he is a pro driver but still...its impressive how well he handled it.

He's one bad ************ to come up with that kind of witty comment in that situation.

DannyGT 10-26-2009 05:47 PM

Great sence of humor too. Sad that so many people couldnt understand it...all those posts make me want to bash their heads in. It was incredibly witty and well played after having just survived something like that. I was just happy he was able to talk, let alone crack a wise one....Priceless.

I cant believe someone thought he was even 1/10 close to being serious about 'sending you the bill' - people need to leave the interwebs and go outside.

Nice control, but why did he start to slide?

shabarivas 10-26-2009 06:39 PM

I think the sun roof poped and caused a whole bunch of bad drag lol...

:iagree:

The amount of control he had was pretty impressive.

Cjanik 10-26-2009 08:14 PM

Wow, at 225mph thats impressive control. hell even at 45mph if i go sideways i cant even control that!

look at how he controls the steering wheel at that speed, once he realizes he no longer has the car facing where he wants, he keeps the steering wheel straight, and actually steers AWAY from the turn to avoid spinning out (i assume).

Sharif@Forged 10-26-2009 11:49 PM

Oftentimes, once you realize there is no chance of saving it the best advise is to relax and do nothing suddenly. He did just that.

If Jeremy Clarkson was driving, he would have to change his bloomers…………………

BanningZ 10-27-2009 04:24 PM

His comment was priceless! :bowrofl:
